First of all, a quick note on Abita's new seasonal Red Ale. It's been a favorite of mine for some time, although last year's batch was a bit of a disappointment. But, if my first two six packs are any indication, it's a return to prominence. Smooth, well-balanced, with a good finish. Check it out.
In other news, Nola Brewing is finally releasing their long-awaited beers. I first tried their brews during the WYES Beer Fest, and I thought they were in the top 10 if not the top 5 of the hundred or so offered. They should have a brown and a golden in pubs starting this Friday. So far the bars include both Bulldogs, Lager's and a few other places. A great new addition to the brew scene.
